You might feel like being social, which may mean that you are excited by fully enjoying your time with friends today. While it may seem that your time spent with friends is full of fun and lighthearted conversation, perhaps when you are with them you may want to reflect upon how important they are to your life. Even if you are talking about everyday things, you can try to imagine what your life would be like without the people in your social circle today; that is, you might wish to reflect on the positive energy you get from being with people about whom you care. As you come to recognize what you gain from your relationships, you may find that being with people who affirm and support you adds a deeper dimension to your social life.

A large part of enjoying our social lives is recognizing the beauty of the people with whom we choose to spend our time. It is easy for us to go out and be with people simply to be social, but our time is always best spent when we are with people who touch us in special ways—through our spirit and shared love—for being with others in this way enriches us and creates a deeper bond between us. Thinking about the value your friends bring to your life and the ways in which they contribute to your overall wellbeing through their friendship, comfort, and humor could help you to realize the blessings of your relationships today.
